UN Human Rights Chief Warns of Rising Civilian Toll in Yemen

UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Volker Türk warned on Monday of a rising number of civilian deaths and injuries due to the escalating conflict in Yemen. He urged all parties involved to exercise restraint to protect civilian lives. The warning comes as Houthi rebels continue to strike Saudi Arabia and target commercial shipping in the Red Sea. These developments are viewed as part of the broader confrontation between Iran and the United States, which continues to impact regional stability.
